If we make it less popular with people concern trolling "politics" then we're fine with it.

Every single time we get new nerdy platforms they're cool for a couple years and then the normies come in with whiny nonsense. I do hope the majority of you stay away for many years to come.

Most of the time. Sometimes it can lead to code that is ambiguous and ASI picks the wrong way to interpret it.

They're a completely different liability.

Bro I'm thriving in this society and am as left as they come. Whole bunch of stupid ass games that are easy to play when the circumstances favor you. They're entirely unfair and inequitable.

Winning at this shit game is nothing to be proud of.

What a stupid take, these are completely different and valid problems with entirely separate solutions. One of which the gaming industry has spent decades fighting and the other they literally just got tools for.

You ever convert a Nazi with words? You certainly haven't convinced me that a Nazi puncher and a Nazi are the same.

Re: Coding in binary. It makes no difference. Your assembly is binary, just represented in a more human readable form when writing it in assembly.

Re: Manual interaction. Sure there's plenty of old computers where you can flip switches to input instructions or manipulate registers (memory on the cpu). But this is not much different from using assembly instructions except you're doing it live.

You can also create purpose built processors which might be what you mean? Generally this isn't too useful but sometimes it is. FPGAs are an example of doing this type of thing but using software to do the programming of the processor.

Not defending paper straws specifically but recycling is a scam. Anything common household material that is not plastic is inherently better than plastic from an environmental standpoint.
